A Rather Useless Inheritance by Blood_Stained_Fingers

Summary
Being a Parselmouth came with the inherent predisposition to understand snake behaviours and imitate them. It was relieving Harry wasn’t going to kill anyone with venom, nor petrify them with his gaze. But also, somewhat frustrating as it was all completely useless. None of the skills that came with being a Parselmouth would help Harry survive Voldemort.
It might, in fact, have the opposite effect. For all Riddle's fury that Harry was the cause of his elder self’s defeat, he was fascinated by the fact Harry was also a Parselmouth. He had grabbed Harry’s face, turning him side to side looking bemusedly enraptured by Harry’s threat display. “At your age, I was imitating much more vicious snakes than this, Harry.”
That may have been all well and good, but Harry didn’t feel very vicious. He felt very threatened and in over his head.

Summary
Complete.
“I don’t make speeches. I just let my bat speak for me in the summertime.” ~Honus Wagner
This is a strange deviation from an idea from the glorious Niña.
The idea: “‘an AU where Stiles IS a shape-shifter. Only he doesn’t change into another creature, just into a mute, hyper-violent, bat-wielding Hyde character. And it only happens during the summer months. Like he said in that one episode, “It’s seasonal.”’
These chapters are a sort of connected string of scenes.

Summary
Stars are born to do two things: to sit in empty space and to die. Rain has one purpose: to cry. In the depth of the night, when the stars are hidden behind linen-looking clouds and the sky deems it a good night for a good cry, both entities find it humorous to call out to their favorite plaything. If only they knew, that in the end, stars always die, and rain always fades.
Or; Spencer can no longer bare the weight or guilt and thinks his only way out is to give into death with the slim chance of making it to the stars. The team has other ideas.

Summary
The shame of all of it burns hot like a sun in the hollow spongy space inside her lungs. She exhales it in light. The shirt's collar is too big on her neck, too long on her arms, and she barely tips over the counter enough to see it in the mirror. But there is a safety in it. Her second skin. She could swallow it all and pivot and try again.
Additionally:
Diana Reid has a delusion that she is a god, or alternately, a royal. If her daughter wants to name herself after the house of Spencer, it's not exactly out of the realm of her reality.Bookmarked by RedRua

Summary
Moody reclined in his chair, his prosthetic scratched over the floor. “What year is it, Riddle.”
It wasn’t phrased like a question, maybe that was why Tom finally answered.
“September.” Tom clipped out coldly. “1942. You know this.”’
Harry inhaled so sharply he choked on his spit. He hurriedly turned away, hacking and wheezing as he nearly asphyxiated on his own saliva.
“Yeah,” Moody grimaced with a slight disgruntled noise hidden in his tone, “that’s a problem.”Or
Tom Riddle, 15 years old, in the middle of the London Blitz suddenly finds himself in a future with no allies, resources, information, and everyone he knows treats him with enough restraint to not murder him on the spot. It takes a lot to truly ruin a human being, to rot them so thoroughly even fruit flies avoid the stench. Tom doesn't want this bullshit, Tom only wants to-

leave no stone unturned (a series of standalones) by TheDivineComedian
Fandom Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
15 Apr 2023
Summary
Series was formerly "Remus Lupin and the darkness", but evolved way beyond that.
I should probably make clear somewhere that these are standalones in that they share some sort of continuity, but occasionally veer of into different AUs at different points of the timestream. So Not By Force is definitely not where things are meant to go, it's just an exercise in misery ^^

Summary
Revenge is the misguided attempt to transform shame and pain into pride. Being forsaken and neglected, ignored and forgotten, revenge seems a fairly competent obligation at this point.
Skylar is the boy who lived, that's why he's important. I'm not Skylar.
Going to Hogwarts is part of the plan, waking the basilisk is part of the plan, taking potions, learning spells, being tortured, murdering others, watching people di-I’m going to tell you a story, although it’s a bit long. I’m going to make you listen, because I want you to understand how you made me a monster. I’ll call this story antithesis, and you’re going to learn every single moment where things went wrong. I want you to cry, and beg for me to kill you, and when I’m done with this, you’re going to want to do that to yourself. You’re going to listen, because in the end, you owe me that much. You owe me so much more, but here we are, and this is how it’s going to end. Who knows, maybe this useless battle between you and me and this bloody world, well, maybe we always were fated to kill each other.
Do you know what it is like to be unmade?Series

Summary
Albus Dumbledore watched two visionaries start as driven, powerful, brilliant young men, and become monsters. He has no heir, no protege of equal power to step in should another one rise, and he is old. So when he hears of a Chosen One with power the Dark Lord knows not, he thinks maybe he doesn't want this boy prophesied to defeat Lord Voldemort to grow up in the Wizarding world. He thinks of the bonds of family, and the opportunity he has to shape his world's politics, and of a corrupt magical elite who've signed on with two Dark Lords over hatred of Muggles. He thinks Harry Potter should grow up loved by his family, and Voldemort be destroyed so there is no need for Harry to ever realize his power, and he acts to make both of those things happen. Because he's Dumbledore and what he wants, he gets.
Usually.
When you dabble with improvised ritual magic, you should be aware there might be unforeseen consequences. For example: souls touch.

Summary
The first call came from some dude named Chet. Stiles hadn’t even thought that was a real name people actually had. “Why the hell are you calling me?”
“You’re not Laura,” the completely unhelpful guy said, which both ignored the question and answered it.
“No, I most certainly am not,” Stiles agreed. “I am very relieved to say that you have a wrong number, my dude.”
“This is the number she gave me!” Chet argued—argued, as if that would make the number right somehow—and Stiles hung up on him.
